India had a disappointing run in the recently concluded T20 World Cup, securing only two wins from four games, resulting in their early exit. Meanwhile, New Zealand, with three wins, advanced to the knockouts, then defeated the West Indies for a spot in the Final—marking their first appearance since 2010—and went on to claim the title against South Africa. This triumph came after an 11-match losing streak leading up to the global event. Notably, both teams began their campaigns against each other, with India suffering a heavy 58-run defeat, bowled out for 102 while chasing 160.

In the ongoing 2022/23-25 International Cricket Council (ICC) Women’s Championship, India currently sits 5th in the standings, having won 10 of their 12 ODIs, with only one defeat and a tied game. India’s most recent ODI series dates to June 2024, where they delivered a dominant performance, whitewashing South Africa on home soil.

In the same championship, New Zealand is ranked 6th, with 8 wins and 8 losses from 18 ODIs, including two no-results. A series win here will be crucial, as it would boost their rankings and improve their chances of directly qualifying for the 2025 World Cup in India. New Zealand last played an ODI series against England in April 2024, where they suffered a 2-1 series defeat.
